Hawks' Jarrett Jack: Month away from full-contact workouts

Jack (knee) recently suggested that he's about a month away from resuming full-contact workouts, ESPN.com's Mike Mazzeo reports.

Analysis:

Jack is seven months into his recovery from a torn ACL and seems to be progressing as expected to this point. The 32-year-old doesn't believe he's at risk of missing the start of the upcoming season, though the Hawks could very well limit him in training camp so as to avoid a setback. He's tentatively slated to open his first season in Atlanta as the backup to Dennis Schroder, who will join the starting lineup following the offseason trade that sent Jeff Teague to the Pacers.
